Please Help!!

I have a 1987 245 that stalled when driving home recently. I pulled over, cranked for a little bit and it started again, but occasionally would seem to lose power or miss. I managed to limp home, where it would not start again.

Here's what I have checked:

-there is fuel in the cylinders (wet plugs when removed)
-power to coil and coil appears to check out
-power to the ecu and ground appear good
-replaced damaged 25A fuse holder
-can get spark at main plug wire when jumping wiring to Hall Effect Sensor
-fuel relay seems OK

There seems to be a occasional clicking that sounds like the fuel pump, but it isn't always going when the key is on.

What am I missing?

Thank you for any and all help!!
